Jason James Dy (born June 19, 1990), also known as Jason Dy, is a Filipino singer. He rose to fame after joining and eventually winning the second season of The Voice of the Philippines.
Dy won a recording contract with MCA Music Inc. (Philippines), a Universal Music Group company in 2015, with his self-titled studio album, Jason Dy, released on September 4, 2015, with the hit singles 'Caught In That Feeling', 'Milagro', and 'Walang Iwanan'. A Deluxe version of the album was then released on October 2016.
Jason Dy was born on June 19, 1990 in Butuan City, Philippines. In 2003, his parents separated; they were granted an annulment in 2014. Jason lived with his mother until she needed to leave to Singapore to find work. He finished High School at Father Saturnino Urios University.
To support himself, Dy started working as a "haranista", serenading women in place of their boyfriends or suitors. He also recorded demo tracks, including the original soundtrack of the 2013 film Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo?, which was re-recorded by Xian Lim for his XL2 album, as well as "Kontrabida" and "Nasa 'Yo Na Ang Lahat" by Sam Concepcion and Daniel Padilla, respectively. He also uploaded covers on YouTube as a hobby, composing an original song titled "2 Have U".
During the second-season auditions for ABS-CBN's The Voice of the Philippines, which aired on November 9, 2014, Dy performed Sam Smith's "Stay with Me". Coaches Sarah Geronimo, Lea Salonga, and Apl.de.ap all pressed their buttons for him, stating that he was able to bring out the emotion of the song through his falsetto skills. Although Bamboo Manalac did not turn for him, Manalac expressed that it "was a great performance". Dy eventually chose Geronimo to coach him, as he believed that she would be able to help him have a place in the music industry.
